Hi,
the reason is buried in debian/patches/debian-hacks/Use-system-library-astylej.patch
This *should* use the Debian astylej, which is already a dependency.
Somehow it does not properly get picked up though.
Julien, do you have an idea what might be wrong here ? Does it need to 
be explictily added to the java runtime path ?

best,
